Hi, I searched through many threads but could not find a solution to this. Appreciate any help.

I have a WR802n v4 and want to use Client mode by connecting it to my phones wifi hotspot. I’ve gone through the standard procedures ie scanned and set up the hotspot under wireless settings, however the phone does not show the WR802n as a connected device.

If I instead use the house wifi as the Host Network, Client mode works fine.

The bizarre thing is my phones hotspot works without any issue in WISP mode (connects fine). The other strange thing is if in Client mode I scan and select my phones hotspot, the WR802n stops blinking as if it has successfully connected to my phone, but its not listed in the “connected devices” list in my phone.

My phone is a Samsung S21. I tried another phone (S9), same problem.

Thanks.
